On May 14, Susan Hutson, the independent police monitor for the city of New Orleans brought together community stakeholders and police officials to help formulate a program that would allow police officers and citizens to mediate minor disagreements, the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Committee members, including representatives from various community and criminal justice groups, are charged with planning and implementing the program.

Avoiding Apple’s Mistakes: Negotiating for Ethical Working Conditions
In January, a New York Times exposé documented dangerous and harsh working conditions in Chinese factories that manufacture products for Apple. The American technology company stood accused of tolerating child labor, unsafe working conditions, and punishingly long shifts for thousands of workers at the factories of Chinese suppliers such as Foxconn. The article triggered a firestorm of criticism against Apple and a closer examination of how Western companies can ensure humane labor practices for their workers abroad.
